Prenzlau is the capital of one of the biggest counties in Germany. The historical name of this landscape is Uckermark. The town is located approximately 100 km north of the national capital Berlin, 50 km from Stettin in Poland and 80 km from the Baltic Sea. The area is surrounded by natural parks (for example Biosphere Reserve Schorfheide-Chorin) and large lakes. Near the lake „Unteruckersee“ you can find the nature discovery park (“Naturerlebnispark”) of Prenzlau. In this park visitors can learn a lot about nature. Kids are invited to get in contact with different farm animals. Adults can participate in workshops or inform themselves about ecological gardening, sustainable lifestyle and interesting natural phenomena. Work: Volunteers are invited to support this little park and its actual project called “accessible farm” (Begehbarer Bauernhof). This means mainly working with wood, for example to build wooden fences as protection area for the pets. Or another important task will be to decorate the facilities and the compound with artistic design.

You will discover interesting details such as a house made of clay and bales of straw ore how to take care of bees and its hive.
